PIE (MINCEMEAT CUSTARD)

2 Eggs
1/3 cup sugar
1-1/2 cups mincemeat
1/4 t salt
1-1/2 cups milk
1 single unbaked crust (9")

Beat eggs with sugar and salt.  Add milk.  Stir until thoroughly mixed.  Line 9" pan with pastry and spread mincemeat evenly over bottom crust.  Pour the custard mixture over.  Sprinkle with nutmeg.  Bake at 425 for 15 minutes, then at 350 for 25-30 minutes or until silver knife inserted in custard comes out clean.  Decorate with "wreath" of cherries, citron, and nuts.

This is really easy and also very unusual.  I've heard of mincemeat pie but not mixed with custard.  It's actually very interesting.  If you like mincemeat pie, you should like this.  I didn't decorate it with the wreath as suggested, but I'm sure that would've looked cool!
